Good for you for wanting to further your and your dog's training!

My Rottie rescue group has a listing of trainers adopters of our dogs have worked with and liked. Perhaps Rottie rescue in your area offers a similar service. Check their website. If you don't see a listing, email the group.

Check the AKC's site for obed clubs in your area.

Ask your vet for recommendations. Call other vets, dog groomers, and kennels. Ask at your humane society. Our HS runs various classes and workshops.

Good luck! It's great to see an owner interested in training.

Ideally, you want a trainer who's had experience in training working dogs and uses positive reinforcement.
